I know this sounds crazy, but shouldn’t the Secretary of Energy know something about energy?

Panels are from Lyons, Spokane, or Kalispell. Roseburg went out of business doing it. Canada is producing it for cheaper. FWIW the owners of these local CLT suppliers are all not “blue”, donated to Trump (public rec) and have historically supported non-environmentally conscious logging practices
Michael Bowles (@michaelbowles.bsky.social) reply parent
Real question. Have you been to a “blue state” recently? I just walked my daughter to daycare and in sub-15 minutes I saw four CLT projects under construction. Two are publicly funded projects, school and library. 100% of my projects under construction right now are mass timber. Airport too

Mike is always great and objective. Danny is a great fan and certainly invested in the team but drinks his own kool-aid a bit too much for my attention. He was confrontationally adamant Simons was the next face of the franchise, worth his weight in gold not long ago. There’s countless examples.

It would make more sense to either build a new stadium and district at the Loyd Center or renovate the Moda and house the Blazers at Climate Pledge during that 1-2 seasons. Construction could run May 2027 - to October 2028 for instance. Seattle gets an nba team rental for a year before expansion

Thanks Mike. I feel honored to be awarded with the least worst nickname attempt. Personally, I don’t think anyone wants Hansen’s long nba legacy to be mired in ignorant trade policy of the mid 2020s when he can be immortalized in youthful charisma that captured our hearts at turn of the millennium.

Ah, I see. Thank you for taking the time to educate me. I’ve seen it aggregated as such that that Boston offer matched $ for $. While I got you, why are all the best basketball analysts in Australia? Is it the fear of wild drop bears that confine you indoors and to eternal research and study?
